The corrosion properties were found to be dependent on the composition, i.e., the precursor source, and on the thickness of the thin films. Tetrakis(diethylamino) titanium used as a liquid metal organic source for the deposition of thin Ti(N,C,O) layers onto austenitic stainless steel provided a significant improvement of the corrosion resistance, which resulted in superior interfacial electrical conductivity after corrosion tests.
